Secretary's  Office,  February  1,  1838. 

To  the  Honorable  Senate,  and 

Honorable  House  of  Representatives  i  . 

In  obedience  to  the  provisions  of  the  Act  of  the  19th  of  April  last, 
I  have  the, honor  to  submit  an  Abstract  of  the  Returns  of  the  Asses- 
sors of  all  the  Towns  and  Cities  in  the  Commonwealth,  concerning 
certain  branches  of  industry. 

I  have,  in  the  first  instance,  presented  a  sketch  of  the  return  re- 
ceived from  each  city  and  town ;  then  an  Abstract,  by  counties,  of  the 
ansicers  to  the  questions  proposed  in  the  Act ;  next  an  Abstract,  by 
counties,  of  the  statements  of  the  Assessors  in  addition  to  their  an- 
swers;   and  finally,  a  condensed  Summary  of  the  whole. 

The  Assessors  of  many  of  the  towns  have  confined  themselves,  or 
nearly  so,  to  rendering  answers  to  the  questions  proposed ;  while  others 
have  taken  pains,  in  addition  to  their  answers,  to  gather  and  present 
the  statistics  of  other  branches  of  industry,  some  of  which  are  well 
known  to  be  carried  on  in  towns  whose  returns  do  not  allude  to  them. 
Had  the  Assessors,  in  all  cases,  been  equally  particular  in  their  inqui- 
ries and  returns,  it  is  believed  that  the  aggregates  would  have  been 
considerably  greater  than  those  exhibited  in  these  tables. 

The  raw  materials  used  in  many  of  the  specified  manufactures,  are 
the  produce  of  other  parts  of  the  world.  The  value  of  these,  I  have, 
of  course,  no  means  of  determining  with  accuracy.  Sufficient,  how- 
ever, on  these  points,  is  known,  to  render  it  probable  that  the  addi- 
tional value  given  to  those  raw  materials,  by  the  creative  industry  of 
our  fellow-citizens,  is  at  least  equal  in  amount  to  the  entire  crops  of 
any  of  those  States,  whose  staple  articles  constitute  the  most  promi- 
nent objects  of  our  national  export. 

These  tables,  (with  the  exception  of  that  portion  which  concerns 
sheep  and  the  fisheries,)  embrace  none  of  the  statistics  of  our  agricul- 


LETTER. 

ture  or  commerce,  and  of  course  fall  very  far  short  of  presenting  a 
complete  view  of  the  products  of  the  State ;  they  are,  however,  suffi- 
ciently ample,  to  illustrate  the  triumphant  success  of  judicious  and 
persevering  enterprize,  and  indicate  that  the  prosperity  of  Massachu- 
setts, notwithstanding  natural  disadvantages  of  soil  and  climate,  has  an 
unfailing  source  in  the  intelligent  industry  of  her  people. 

Very  respectfully, 

Your  obedient  servant, 

JOHN  P.  BIGELOW, 

Secretary  of  the  Commonwealth.

SUMMARY 


Of  all  the  preceding  Tables,  exhibiting  a  condensed  general  result 
for  the  whole  State  of  the  answers  and  statements  of  the  Assessors, 
shewing  the  value  of  the  articles  manufactured  or  produced,  the  num- 
ber of  hands  employed,  and  amount  of  capital  invested. 

Q^In  relation  to  some  articles,  no  information  was  received  from 
any  of  the  Assessors,  concerning  the  number  of  hands  employed  and 
amount  of  capital  invested,  the  Act  not  requiring  it.  In  regard  to 
other  articles,  the  hands  employed  and  capital  invested  are  stated  in 
some  of  the  returns,  and  not  in  others.  The  aggregates  under  those 
two  heads,  therefore,  are  doubtless  very  much  less  than  would  be 
shewn  by  more  complete  returns.
